Zahmyre "Zay" Harris (born October 14, 1998) is a professional soccer player who plays defender for the United States Virgin Islands national soccer team.
Club career
Born in El Paso, Texas to an American mother and United States Virgin Islands father hailing from Saint Croix,[1] Harris moved to Atlanta at the age of ten, where he played soccer for the Woodland High School in Stockbridge.[1] Having scored 54 goals and notching 27 assists, he earned All-Conference, All-Region, and Offensive Player of the Year honours,[2] earning a trial with Georgia United (who later became professional club Atlanta United).[1] However, having fractured his shin in a High School All-Star game, he was unable to attend the trial, and instead committed to playing soccer at the Georgia Southwestern State University.[1]
International career
Eligible to represent both the United States and United States Virgin Islands, Harris earned his first call-up to the latter in October 2018.[3]
Style of play
Initially a striker, Harris was converted to a left wingback during his time at the Georgia Southwestern State University.[1] He has cited Marcelo and Leroy Sané as players he likes to watch in order to model his own game on.[1]
